BMW Smoking Blue-White On Idle

Uncategorized

IS YOUR BMW SMOKING BLUE-WHITE ON IDLE?

DID YOU NOTICE THAT AFTER YOUR BMW ENGINE IDLING FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME AT THE FIRST FEW REVS, A  CLOUD OF BLUE-white SMOKE IS COMING OUT OF THE EXHAUST TAILPIPE?

Does the engine consume oil?

Models affected:

The N62, N63 engines(that are used in your car and the X5’s), 5,6 and 7 series.

CAUSE:  The first thing that can go wrong are the Oil Separator causing excessive vacuum in the crankcase which will then cause the oil to be sucked into the intake and burned. The second and most common issue is the valve guide seals go bad due to the age and heat they sustain while the engine is operating, and oil gets past the valves causing oil consumption issues and smoking.

SOLUTIONS: The oil separator, known as the engine breather, if faulty, is an easy fix.

The valve stem oil seal replacement is a comprehensive job, usually involving removing cylinder heads to get access to valve springs and then to valve oil seals. This job consists of the N62 engines with about 30 hours of labour plus parts, which can make a small fortune in money or time. On top you have to make sure before starting this job timing settings will be done correctly, and to do it, you also need special tools.

Here at OGS Mechanics, we have the right equipment which will allow us to perform valve steam replacement without removing cylinder heads, reducing costs to less than half of what it means the first option.

Contact us to see how we can help you to bring back to spec your pride and joy!
